 In the new movie A Quiet Place, Day One, we get the origin story behind this franchise's first film back in 2018. Giant bug-like aliens have invaded Earth. They can't see, but their hearing is really good. Any noise attracts them, and then it's game over. In this prequel, Sam is a terminally ill hospice patient. She meets a British guy named Eric. They must escape from New York City, but that's far easier said than done.
